SAFE INSTALLATION:

Adjusting & Securing the Telescoping Back

   Keep screws loose enough so the depth can be adjusted.
2. Using 6 sets of Hardware B, attach the back section of the telescoping back second.
   Keep screws loose enough so the depth can be adjusted.
3. Now that both sections have been attached, determine the maximum depth available within your wall
4. Adjust & secure both sections of the telescoping back to the determined depth
   Do not over tighten screws

Choosing A Location

1. Be sure to pick a wall free of plumbing pipes & electrical wires. Use caution when cutting into drywall.
2. The safe is 14" wide & is designed to fit between standard 16" center-to-center studs

NOTE:

1. Most homes have wall framing constructed of 2x4's &/or 2x6's that are located 16" from center of stud to center of stud.

NOTE:

1. Instructions shown are for wood framed wall installation

Wall Cutout

1. Determine the approximate location of the stud for the right side of your wall safe [hinge side]
2. Drill or cut a large enough pilot hole to determine where the inside edge of the stud is located
3. Using a Framing Square/T-Square, draw a 21 1⁄8" vertical pencil line along the inside edge of the stud. This will locate the right side [hinge side] of the safe
4. From the top of your drawn line, measure 14" to the left & make a pencil mark.
   Repeat this step at the bottom of your drawn line
5. Using a Framing Square, draw a vertical line between the pencil marks locating the left side of the safe
6. With the Framing Square, draw a horizontal line at the top of the 21 1⁄8" measurement joining the 2 vertical lines.
   Repeat this step at the bottom.
   You now have a 14" x 21 1⁄8" rectangle drawn on the wall between the studs
7. With the Dry-Wall Saw or equivalent tool; beginning at the pilot hole, cut along the pencil lines & remove the wall section

NOTE:

1. The outer flange of the safe will cover the cut line & any flaws

Installing the Wall Safe

To make the safe installation as easy as possible, remove the door. [

See Removing the Door section

]
1. Fit the wall safe within the wall cutout so that the hinge side of the safe is flush against the right stud & the front flange is flat against the wall
2. Mark the stud using the 4 outer slots in the front piece of the wall safe to indicate where the pilot holes need to be drilled
3. Remove the safe from the cutout & drill 1⁄16" - 1⁄8" diameter pilot holes
4. Now that the pilot holes have been drilled, you can fasten the safe into the wall.
   Use 4 sets of Hardware D through the 4 outer slots in the front piece of the safe
5. Install expandable shelves as needed

IMPORTANT:

1. Do not over tighten; there may be a little gap between the left stud & the safe - this is normal

Shelf Extensions

Your wall safe comes with additional shelf extensions. The shelf extensions come in 2 sizes:

Large & Small

.

After installing your safe within the wall, install the shelf extensions that work best with your depth. When using the larger shelves you can install the smaller shelves to add extra support beneath the large ones.

Use

2 sets

of

Hardware A

for each shelf extension.
